Daisy and Gatsby come from opposite ends of the class spectrum, and to Daisy, her reputation to the upper class is the most important thing. She is constantly looking for achievements to seem worthy of envy to her ‘friends’.
Daisy chose Tom because to her he represented a secure social position and the wealth she was accustomed to. Daisy believed that Tom could make her happy because he represented things that made her happy besides love, like material things and money. But Daisy can never be happy with Tom because when she married him, she objectified him into the things he gave her; the expectations of Tom that she constructs in her head are mostly made of the gifts she has received, rather than Tom’s actual personality and morals.

"One Today"—excerpt
by Richard Blanco
One sun rose on us today, kindled over our shores,
peeking over the Smokies, greeting the faces
of the Great Lakes, spreading a simple truth
across the Great Plains, then charging across the Rockies.
One light, waking up rooftops, under each one, a story
told by our silent gestures moving across windows.
Blanco creates a sense of common experience using which of the following elements in the first stanza? (4 points)
Creating interest in the oppression of people's day
Emphasizing the active and lively movement of the sun
Suggesting each household has a story
Stating the sun belongs exclusively to this continent
Answer:
Suggesting each household has a story.
Explanation:
The poem "One Today" by Richard Blanco was the inaugural poem at the time of the second inauguration of President Barack Obama in 2013. The poem is a celebration of the shared American experience of diverse people from different cultures and backgrounds.
In the poem, Blanco unifies everyone under "one sun", "one light". He went on to create a sense of common experience by suggesting that each household, under "one light" has a story to tell. This common quality of different families telling our stories through "our silent gestures moving across windows" is what makes America great too.
Thus, the correct answer is the third option.
What does this interaction reveal about Antony? Select
two options.
Antony is incredibly loyal to Lepidus.
He values the efforts of Lepidus and will reward him.
His opinion of the conspirators has changed, and he
now agrees with their cause.
Antony uses people to get what he wants and then
dismisses them.
Antony is not as trustworthy as he seemed in the
speech at Caesar's funeral.
Answer: Antony uses people to get what he wants and then dismisses them.
Antony is not as trustworthy as he seemed in the speech at Caesar's funeral.
Explanation:
Here's the missing interaction:
ANTONY. This is a slight, unmeritable man,
Meet to be sent on errands. Is it fit,
The three-fold world divided, he should stand
One of the three to share it?
OCTAVIUS. So you thought him,
And took his voice who should be pr.icked to die,
In our black sentence and proscription.
ANTONY. Octavius, I have seen more days than you.
And though we lay these honors on this man.
To ease ourselves of divers sland'rous loads,
He shall but bear them as the a.ss bears gold,
To groan and sweat under the business,
Either led or driven as we point the way;
And having brought our treasure where we will,
Then take we down his load, and turn him off,
Like to the empty a.ss, to shake his ears and graze in commons.
The interaction revealed that "Antony uses people to get what he wants and then dismisses them" and that "Antony is not as trustworthy as he seemed in the speech at Caesar's funeral".
From the story, we can deduce that Anthony only wanted to use Lepidus after which he'll later be dumped. Anthony questioned his ability to rule.
Answer:
D. Antony uses people to get what he wants and then dismisses them.
E. Antony is not as trustworthy as he seemed in the speech at Caesar’s funeral.
